What are Journey Lockets? Journey Lockets are double-sided glass lockets that open and allow you place interchangeable "inserts" inside. The interior glass in Journey Lockets are flat and accommodate 2 dimensional (flat) designs. When you purchase a Journey Locket, you have limitless possibilities for what can be worn inside. You can create your own inserts, like photos, initials or other creative inserts. If you would like help creating inserts to wear inside of your Journey Locket, you can use the service we provide online to make your inserts for you. You can find these choices under Personalize Your Locket.

Many customers regularly order different insert designs, creating their own personal insert collection. They love to change their inserts often, some even daily. We roll out new insert designs each year to keep your Journey Locket on-trend with the current fashions and colors for the year. So don't forget to check back often for new insert designs!

How do the lockets open?Each Journey Locket has a screw mechanism on the top portion (bail) of the locket. Simply hold the silver ball that sits directly on top of the square/circle and then rotate the locket while holding the screw ball in place. The silver ball/piece will unscrew up the bail of the locket allowing the locket to fold open at the bottom hinge. Place your 2 inserts in facing outward, close the locket and screw the silver ball back to the downward position.

How do I know what length chain to buy?The easiest way to determine what length is best is to measure an existing necklace or bracelet you have. Our bracelet sizes and necklace lengths are actually the length of the chain with the toggle. The 1" lockets add 2 inches to the drop on the necklace, and the 3/4" lockets add about 1" to the drop. Here is a chain length guide to help you out.

Can you put 3D objects inside of the locket?Our lockets are designed with a flat area in between the 2 pieces of glass. There is approximately 1mm of space inside of the locket. This allows flat 2 dimensional inserts to be placed inside.

What is Gold Vermeil?Gold Vermeil (Pronounced: Vermay) is sterling silver that has been gold-plated. Most of our vermeil is plated with 18K gold. This is a good combination for those with allergy to normal, plated jewelry items. The difference between vermeil, and gold-filled, is in the thickness of the gold and the base metal used. In vermeil, the base is sterling silver.

Personalization Information

How do I get my photos that small? You actually don't have to worry about that! We provide a personalization service for you, if you choose to use it. You can order Custom Photo Inserts for your Journey Locket that we create using your photographs. You can choose 2 or 6 photos a time. Send us your color images and will make a color AND a Black & White version for you. If you submit 2 images, you will get 4 inserts back. If you submit 6 images, you will get 12 inserts back. We also have an option to add a Moisture Resistant Coating to your inserts. You can check the box if you want to add this to your order.

How do I know what photos will look best?

Oval lockets work only with vertical photos. These images need to be taken from a distance so we can make the appropriate crop for the vertical oval shape.

Can I get updated photo inserts?Yes! You can order additional photo inserts any time you like and as often as you like. We know babies grow fast!

Can I get monograms or initials to put into my Journey Locket?Yes! We love creating the custom monogram inserts. You can order them in our Monogram Section!

How do I prevent my inserts from turning in my round Journey Locket?The best trick is to place a 2-3 more inserts in between the ones facing outward. By adding additional inserts you create a tiny amount of pressure when the locket is closed. This keeps the outward facing inserts in place, pressed up again the glass, and prevents them from moving around loosely. Be careful not to pack it so full that it is hard to close.

How do you care for Journey Lockets Jewelry?All of our Sterling Silver Jewelry can be cleaned with a sterling polishing cloth or liquid cleaner. If you use a liquid silver cleaner, you can place the locket into the liquid. It will not damage the glass in the locket. We suggest cleaning your jewelry after each time it is worn to prevent excessive tarnish & build up from makeup, lotions, and perfumes. For storage, Sterling Silver pieces should be stored in small sealed plastic bags to minimize tarnish.
